Coding is just a part of engineering, I'm currently in a mental block, I would be very happy if an AI wrote the code for me, but from the look of it only change the way i would write code, instead of thinking+writing loop, it would be prompting+reading loop which is kinda worst IMO


That mirrors my thoughts pretty well.

From what I gather by watching presentations and talking to people, it's worse. You need to build up these sort of "pre-prompt" texts where you essentially create those different personas before you even start telling it, middle-manager-style, what to build - and hope for the best.

It seems like aside from rote tasks such as generating boilerplate, you can produce better code, quicker, by doing it yourself.
